If you were a random normal poster and someone randomly started disliking all of your stuff, I could see that as creepy.

But if you're a poster that deliberately seeks attention at all times through self aggrandizement, eponymous naming, and replying to every post that even remotely mentions you while encouraging a celebrity following, you can't be freaked out when someone deliberately gives attention, albeit negative, to all of your posts. To be honest, it's a strong, astute bit by @tzznandrew.

Everyone here is a random normal poster and a real live person. Chief does much less to draw attention to himself than the anti-chiefers do. Yes, we should all avoid being butt hurt by a message board, but tzznadrew hasn't posted anything here in ages. So for him to come out of lurker mode to do this is indeed a bit psycho. If you don't like someone's posts in general, just ignore them.

As for Javonte I don't know where he'll end up. I think it's still at UConn but clearly Buzz is putting the effort in to get him. In the end, he's a Canadian kid and we have a clear spot for him, good Bigs coach, and provide a chance for his family to see him play more easily. He seems a thoughtful kid, and I think he's smart to take his time.

No, that's childish. If you dislike everything they post, then you aren't thinking or reading you are reacting to them personally and not based on what they said in that particular post.

Opinions are like armpits...

Your initial premise was to ignore posts you dont like. Now you are stating disliking everything. Which is it??

Is there any scenario where the dislike is acceptable for you? I bet there is.

Some would say that talking about yourself in the third person and trying to take credit for every recruiting decision because of vague posts is childish, too.

This whole situation is a rorschach test. Those that like chief think what @tzznandrew did is weird or creepy, and those of us that aren't a fan of the guy think it's hilarious. To avoid yet another thread being derailed by chief, we should probably just accept that and move on.

No, the premise is to ignore posters you don't like. Dislike posts you don't like. Use dislike thoughtfully based on the content of the post, not who said it.

What @tzznandrew did to Chief is like the ending to It 2:

The Losers regroup and realize the only way to stop Pennywise is by making him feel small. They begin taunting him, showing that they are not afraid of any of It's forms and calling him "just a clown.” Their plan works, with Pennywise surprisingly regressing physically and mentally into a helpless infant. Mike proceeds to rip out It’s heart so he and the Losers can crush it, finally killing It for good.

you're taking this way to seriously. if chief hadn't gone off the rez, nobody would have noticed

That's a fair point. It's opening day so we should really be talking about the team today. This is a distraction.

The dam sure broke for Chief, his tears flooded that thread

Unless it's his way of trolling back. Nothing better than getting people's hopes up first before dashing them.
